RAP-1580MKII Surround Amplied Processor

About Rotel

Our story began over 50 years ago. Over the decades, we have received

hundreds of awards for our products and satised hundreds of thousands

of people who take their entertainment seriously- like you!

Rotel was founded by a family whose passionate interest in music led them

to manufacture high-delity components of uncompromising quality. Through

the years, that passion has remained undiminished and the family goal of

providing exceptional value for audiophiles and music lovers, regardless

of their budget, is shared by all Rotel employees.

Rotel’s engineers work as a close team, listening to, and ne tuning, each

new product until it reaches their exacting musical standards. They are

free to choose components from around the world in order to make that

product the best they can. You are likely to nd capacitors from the United

Kingdom and Germany, semiconductors from Japan or the United States,

while toroidal power transformers are manufactured in Rotel’s own factory.

We all have concerns about our environment. And, as more and more

electronics are produced it is especially important for a manufacturer to do all

it can to engineer products that have a minimum impact on the environment.

At Rotel, we are proud to do our part. We have reduced the lead content

in our products by using special lead-free ROHS solder and components.

Our engineers continually strive to improve power supply efciency without

compromise to quality. When in standby mode Rotel products use minimal

power to meet global Standby Power Consumption requirements.

The Rotel factory is also doing their part to help the environment through

constant improvements to product assembly methods for a cleaner and

greener manufacturing processes.

All of us at Rotel thank you for buying this product. We are sure it will bring

you many years of enjoyment.

Unpacking

Remove the unit carefully from its packaging. Find the remote control and

other accessories. Save the box as it will protect the product if you move

or need to return it for maintenance.

Placement

Place the unit on a solid, level surface away from sunlight, heat, moisture,

or vibration. Make sure that the shelf can support the weight of the unit.

15

Place the unit close to the other components in your system and, if possible,

on its own shelf or with the optionally included rack ears. This will make

initial connection, and subsequent system changes easier.

The unit can generate heat during normal operation. Do not block ventilation

openings. Allow a minimum of 10 cm or 4 inches of unobstructed space

around the unit. If installed in a cabinet, make sure that there is adequate

ventilation.

Do not stack other components or objects on top of the unit. Do not let any

liquid fall into the cabinet.

Overview of Connections

NOTE: Do NOT plug any system component into an AC source until

all connections have been properly made.

Each of the source components in the system are connected to the unit’s

inputs with a pair of standard RCA cables for analog audio, an HDMI video

connection and an optional digital audio cable (coax or optical).

The outputs of the RAP-1580MKII can be sent up to 7 sets of speakers

or sent to power ampliﬁer(s) with standard RCA cables from the preamp

audio outputs. Overhead channel outputs are also available via the RCA

pre-outputs for connection to an external amplier delivering up to 7.1.4

channels of audio. The video signal from the RAP-1580MKII is sent to the

monitor using the HDMI connections.

In addition, the processor has MULTI INPUT connections for use with a

source component that does its own surround decoding, remote IR receiver

inputs and 12V trigger outputs.

NOTE: The S/PDIF digital audio interface standard specifies a 75

ohm impedance and all good digital cables adhere to this requirement.

Do NOT substitute conventional audio interconnect cables for digital

signals. Standard audio interconnects will pass these signals, but their

limited bandwidth reduce performance.

When using analog audio connections ensure the Left and Right signals are

attached to the proper RCA jacks. All RCA-type connections on this product

follow these standard color codes:

Left channel audio: white RCA jack

Right channel audio: red RCA jack

NOTE: Each source input must be properly configured using the INPUT

SETUP menu of the OSD menu system. We recommend going to this

menu after connecting all of the sources to configure it as desired. See

Input Setup in the Setup section for more information.

HDMI Inputs and Outputs

These connections are used for connecting video signals to and from the

unit. See the Making Connections section for speciﬁc instructions for each

type of component on page 17.

Rear HDMI IN 1–7 Video Inputs r

HDMI inputs provide various digital video connections for use with components

that have HDMI outputs. HDMI connections carry video signals in multiple

formats including 3D, 1080p/24Hz, and 4K. The implementation of HDMI

supports audio signals, or a separate audio connection from an HDMI

component. Three HDMI inputs support 4K UHD HDCP 2.2 as labeled on

the rear panel.

Front HDMI IN 9

The Video 8 input is located on the front panel for easier access. Use

this HDMI connection for portable sources or devices that would not be

permanently connected.

HDMI Monitor Outputs e

The two HDMI outputs of the RAP-1580MKII send High Denition video

signals to your TV monitor in parallel. The HDMI outputs can send video

signals to a high-deﬁnition TV 2D (480p/576p, 720p, 1080i, 1080p or

4K) and 3D (up to 1080p/24Hz). One HDMI output will support 4K UHD

HDCP 2.2 as labeled on the rear panel.

There are two HDMI outputs on the rear panel sending out the same video

signal. The ARC/OSD output will send the On Screen Menu to your TV.

Of the two HDMI Outputs, only one HDMI output supports ARC (Audio

Return Channel) and is labeled “ARC/OSD” above the HDMI connector.

Please refer to the VIDEO SETUP menu section of this manual for more

details on page 27.

Your TV may have more than one HDMI input. Not all HDMI inputs support

ARC. Please use the ARC enabled HDMI input of your TV to use the ARC

function on this product. ARC compatible inputs should be labeled with

“ARC” next to the HDMI input connector.

Additional information for HDMI video outputs:

• All HDMI attached devices must be HDCP compatible to ensure proper

display of the HDMI video signal.

• Audio received over HDMI will be processed by this product and sent

out via the RCA and speaker terminal outputs.

• When using both HDMI outputs simultaneously, both HDMI outputs

will be set to the same resolution. This resolution will be the lower

resolution of any attached monitor.

detects the sampling rate of the incoming signal and automatically adjusts.

Sampling rates up to 192kHz are supported.

NOTE: Digital inputs support both 2 Channel Stereo and Multi Channel

audio signals. When using the digital input with a Multi Channel

audio signal the processor DSP will decode the incoming audio stream

including Dolby or DTS.

There are six digital audio inputs on the rear panel, three coaxial and

three optical. These digital inputs can be assigned to any of the VIDEO

1 - 8 input sources using the INPUT SETUP menu during the setup process.

For example, you can assign the COAXIAL 1 digital input connector to the

VIDEO 1 source and the OPTICAL 2 digital input to the VIDEO 3 source. By

default, the source of the audio for inputs Video 1 - 8 is set to HDMI Audio.

At the factory the CD audio input is set to CD (analog RCA), but this can

be changed to XLR, Coax 1 - 3, or Optical 1 - 3.

PC-USB Input t

See Figure 5

Connect this input using the supplied USB cable to the USB socket of your

computer.

The RAP-1580MKII supports both USB Audio Class 1.0 and USB Audio

Class 2.0 modes. Windows computers do not require installation of a

driver for USB Audio Class 1.0 and support playback of audio up to 96kHz

sampling rates.

The Factory Default setting is USB Audio Class 2.0. To take advantage of

USB Audio Class 2.0 audio playback supporting up to 192kHz sampling

rates you will need to install the Windows driver supplied on the CD included

with the RAP-1580MKII.

You can switch the RAP-1580MKII to USB Audio Class 1.0 playback mode

with the following:

• Press MENU on the front panel to enter MAIN MENU and use Up/

Down buttons to select the INPUT SETUP menu then press ENTER.

• Use Left/Right buttons to select “PC-USB” as INPUT SOURCE and select

“USB Audio 1.0” as AUDIO INPUT.

• Power cycle the RAP-1580MKII and reboot your PC after changing

the USB Audio mode to ensure both units are properly congured.

Many audio playback applications do not support 192kHz sampling rate.

Please conrm your audio player supports 192kHz audio and you have

192kHz audio les to properly playback this sample rate. Also, you may

need to congure the audio driver in your PC to output 192kHz or your

computer may “down sample” to a lower audio sample rate. For more

information please refer to your audio player or operating system information.

NOTE: Upon successful installation of the driver, you may need to select

the ROTEL audio driver from the audio/speaker setup of your computer.

Front USB Input 0

See Figure 7

This connection will accept Apple devices such as iPod, iPad and iPhone.

While connected, the iPod and iPhone displays remain active allowing

search and play functions.

Other Connections

AC Input '

Your Rotel processor is conﬁgured at the factory for the proper AC line

voltage in the country where you purchased it (USA: 120 volts/60Hz AC

or CE: 230 volts/50 Hz AC). The AC line conﬁguration is noted on a

decal on the back of your unit. Plug the supplied cord into the AC INPUT

receptacle on the back of the unit.

Master Power Switch a

The large rocker switch on the rear panel is a master power switch. When

it is in the OFF position, power to the unit is completely off. When it is in

the ON position, the front panel STANDBY and remote control ON/OFF

buttons can be used to activate the unit or put it into standby mode.

12V TRIGGER Output i

Many Rotel ampliers offer the option of turning them on and off using a

12 volt trigger. These three connections provide this 12 volt trigger signal

from the processor. When the unit is activated, a 12 volt DC signal is sent

from these jacks to the ampliers to automatically turn them on. When the

processor is put in STANDBY mode, the trigger signal is removed and the

ampliers automatically turn off.

To use the automatic trigger turn on feature, connect one of the RAP-

1580MKII’s 12V TRIG OUT jacks to the 12 volt trigger input of a Rotel

amplier, using only the black 3.5 mm trigger cable included with this unit

or a Rotel amplier. Do not use any other cable for trigger connection. The

+12V DC signal appears at the “tip” of the connector.

The 12V Trigger outputs are conﬁgured to turn on in various combinations

only when speciﬁc input sources are activated. See the INPUT SETUP menus

in the Setup section of this manual for details on page 22.

17

REM IN Jack o

This 3.5 mm mini-jack receives command codes from third-party IR remote

receiver. These remote IR inputs can be used when the RAP-1580MKII front

IR receiver cannot be reached by a sending remote control.

Consult your authorized Rotel dealer for more information on the REM IN jack.

The IR signals from the REM IN jack can be relayed to other source components

using external IR emitters or hard-wired connections from the IR OUT jacks.

See the following section for additional information.

IR OUT Jacks p

The IR OUT 1 & 2 jacks send IR signals received at the REM IN jack to

an infrared blaster or emitter placed in front of a source component’s IR

sensor. In addition, the IR OUT can be hard-wired to other Rotel products

with a REM IN jack.

These outputs allow IR signals to be “relayed” through the RAP-1580MKII

either directly to the IR receiver on the front panel or via the REM IN jack

on the rear panel. This function provides easy control of other source

components when their IR inputs are not accessible such as when they are

installed in a rack system or in a cabinet.

See your authorized Rotel dealer for more information on IR emitters and

repeater systems.

Rotel Link [

Rotel Link is not used for RAP-1580MKII.

Rear USB Power Port \

The rear USB port provides 5V for charging or powering USB devices

including streaming music players. This port does not allow playback of audio.

The port can be congured to remain powered even when the RAP-1580MKII

is in standby mode through the front panel setup menu (See the Power Mode

under the Power Option menu on page 27).

The Power Mode “Quick” option allows the attached streaming source to

remain powered for use with the Signal Sense function for automatic power

on/off control of the amplier.

When congured to provide continuous power to the rear panel USB port the

RAP-1580MKII will consume additional power even when in standby mode.

RS232 Connector y

The RAP-1580MKII can be controlled via RS232 for integration with

automation systems. The RS232 connector accepts a standard straight DB-9

Male-to-Female cable.

NETWORK Connector u

The Network socket accepts standard RJ-45, CAT-5 cables. The network

connection is not required for normal operation of this unit. This connection

is for software updates or control from an automation system only.

For additional information on the connections, cabling, software, and

operating codes for automation system control or software updates, contact

your authorized Rotel dealer.

Making Connections

Connecting Speakers

See Figure 4

This Rotel RAP-1580MKII has built-in ampliers to power up to seven speakers:

normally, left/right front speakers, center channel speaker, left/right surround

speakers, plus two center back speakers or two ceiling speakers. There are

seven pairs of binding post connections (one pair for each speaker) which

accept bare wire, spade lugs, or banana plug connectors (in some markets).

Speakers should have an impedance of 4 ohms or higher.

Each pair of connectors is color-coded for polarity: red for positive and

black for negative. All speakers and all speaker wire is also marked for

polarity. For proper performance, you must maintain this polarity at all

speaker connections. Always connect the positive terminal of each speaker

to the corresponding red speaker terminal on the processor and the negative

speaker terminal to the corresponding black connector on the processor.

The connectors are labeled LEFT FRONT, RIGHT FRONT, LEFT SURROUND,

RIGHT SURROUND, CENTER, CENTER BACK LEFT, CENTER BACK RIGHT.

Route the wires from the processor to the speakers. Leave enough slack so

you can move the components to allow access to the speaker connectors. If

you are using banana plugs, connect them to the wires and then plug into

the back of the binding posts. The collars of the binding posts should be

screwed in all the way (clockwise). If you are using terminal lugs, connect

them to the wires. If you are attaching bare wires directly to the binding

posts, separate the wire conductors and strip back the insulation from the

end of each conductor. Be careful not to cut into the wire strands. Unscrew

the binding post collars. Place the twisted bare wire into the hole in the

binding post. Turn the collars clockwise to clamp the connector lug or wire

rmly in place.

For speaker connection information see Audio Conguration options in the

RAP-1580MKII Setup Menu.

Be sure that no loose wire strands can touch adjacent wires or connectors.

After you have connected the speakers, you need to congure the processor

for the size and style of speakers in your system and calibrate the relative

volume levels of the speakers. See the Setup section of this manual.

Connecting an External Amplier

See Figure 3

The RAP-1580MKII also has preamp RCA outputs for connections to external

power ampliers to drive up to 12 speakers in congurations from 5.1 to

7.1.4. In addition, there are two subwoofer outputs.

To connect ampliers, connect an audio cable from each output jack to the

input of the amplier channel that will power the corresponding speaker.

For example, connect the FRONT L output to the amplier channel driving

the front left speaker. There are two CENTER RCA jacks; use either jack

for a single center channel, or both if you have two center channels. In

six or seven channel systems, make one or two additional connections for

Center Back channel(s). These jacks are labeled CB L[1] and CB L[2]. Use

CB L[1] for a single center back channel. Ceiling or Top speakers should

be connected to the Height 1 and Height 2 jacks.

18

RAP-1580MKII Surround Amplied Processor

The MULTI inputs are analog bypass inputs, passing signals directly to the

Volume Control and preamp outputs, bypassing all of the digital processing.

HDMI digital connection: If the player has HDMI outputs, simply connect

an HDMI cable from the output of the player to one of the HDMI inputs

on the processor. This cable sends the video signal from the player along

with a digital audio signal. Using HDMI for audio and video allows the

multichannel decoding to be handled by the processor.

Connecting a Monitor

See Figure 11

Connect one of the HDMI outputs of the RAP-1580MKII to the HDMI input of

your TV monitor. The RAP-1580MKII has two HDMI outputs. Only one HDMI

output will display the OSD and is ARC enabled. This output is labeled on

the rear panel with ARC/OSD.

Connecting a CD Player or XLR Source

See Figure 8

Digital audio connection: Connect the output of the CD player to any of the

Optical or Coax digital inputs on the processor. Use the INPUT SETUP menu

to assign the audio input to the CD (the default is CD).

Analogue audio connections:

Option 1: Connect the left and right analog outputs from the CD player to

the AUDIO IN jacks labeled CD (left and right). This option uses the CD

player’s D/A converter. Depending on the selected DSP mode this connection

method may require the analog signal to be converted to a digital signal

for processing.

Option 2: If your CD Player (or another source) has XLR output connectors,

you can use the XLR inputs on the RAP-1580MKII for this connection.

Connect the left and right XLR outputs from the source to the jacks labeled

BALANCED INPUT (left and right). This option uses the CD player’s D/A

converter. Depending on the selected DSP mode this connection method may

require the analog signal to be converted to a digital signal for processing.

Although there are typically no video connections for a CD Player, the

RAP-1580MKII can assign another video input to the CD or XLR input. The

Video choices are HDMI 1-8 (Front), Last Video Source, or Off. HDMI 1

video input is assigned to CD and XLR as the default setting.

Connecting a Tuner

See Figure 9

Digital audio connection: If using an HD Radio or other digital tuner, connect

the digital output of the tuner to any one of the DIGITAL IN OPTICAL 1–3

or DIGITAL IN COAXIAL 1–3 inputs on the RAP-1580MKII.

NOTE: The Tuner source by default does not allow the selection of

a digital input. Please use VIDEO 1 - 8, if connecting a Tuner with a

digital input.

Analog audio connection: If using an analog tuner, connect the left and

right analog outputs from the tuner to the pair of audio input jacks labeled

TUNER on the RAP-1580MKII. Make sure that you connect the right channel

to the R input jack and the left channel to the L input jack.

For preamp output connection information see Audio Conguration options

in the RAP-1580MKII Setup Menu on page 23.

After you have connected the preamp outputs, you need to conﬁgure

the RAP-1580MKII for the size and style of speakers in your system and

calibrate the relative volume levels of the speakers. See the Setup section

of this manual on page 23.

Connecting a Subwoofer

See Figure 3

To connect a powered subwoofer, connect a standard RCA audio cable

from the jacks labeled SUB 1/SUB 2 to the input on the subwoofer’s power

amp. Both SUB outputs provide the same signal. Use either connection

for a single subwoofer. Use both connections to connect two subwoofers.

After you have connected the subwoofer, you need to conﬁgure the unit to

use the subwoofer and calibrate the relative volume level of the subwoofer.

See the Speaker Level Setup section of this manual on page 25.

Connecting a DVD, Blu-ray, Cable, Satellite, Game Console and HDTV Tuner

See Figure 6 and 10

Source devices including Blu-ray, DVD, satellite, cable, etc. should be attached

to the RAP-1580MKII using HDMI. Connect an HDMI cable from the output

of the source to one of the HDMI inputs on the processor.

Digital audio connection: Depending on the setup of your system, you can also

use the audio digital connections and assign them to the HDMI video inputs.

Connect the digital output of the source to any of the DIGITAL IN OPTICAL

1–3 or DIGITAL IN COAXIAL 1–3 inputs on the processor. An HDMI cable

carries both digital video and digital audio signals; therefore, in most cases

no separate digital audio connection needs to be made.

Use the INPUT SETUP screen to assign the audio digital input to the HDMI

video input source used above.

Connecting a Blu-ray or DVD Player

See Figure 6

In some cases DVD, SACD, and other external multichannel processors are

connected to the processor by sending decoded analog audio signals using

RCA cables. A player with HDMI outputs can send digital signals directly

to the processor for decoding.

Analog Connections: To connect a Blu-ray or DVD player (or any device

that decodes multi-channel audio) with analog connections, use audio RCA

cables to connect the outputs of the player to the RCA jacks labeled MULTI

INPUT on the RAP-1580MKII. Make sure that you observe proper channel

consistency, i.e. connect the right front channel to the FRONT R input, etc.

Depending on your system conﬁguration, make six connections (FRONT L

& R, REAR L & R, CENTER, and SUBWOOFER), seven connections (adding

a CENTER BACK connection), or eight connections (adding two CENTER

BACK connections).

Automatic Surround Modes

Decoding of digital sources connected is generally automatic with detection

triggered by a “ﬂag” embedded in the digital recording telling the processor

what decoding format to use. For example, when a Dolby or DTS surround

signal is detected, the processor activates the proper decoding.

The processor will recognize a digital signal with Dolby Surround encoding

and activate Dolby

®

decoding. Additionally, you can conﬁgure a default

surround mode for each input using the INPUT SETUP menu (see the Setup

section of this manual). Combined with the auto-detection of Dolby Digital

and DTS, this default surround setting makes operation of the processor’s

surround modes totally automatic.

For stereo inputs such as CD and Tuner, you could select BYPASS or STEREO

mode as the default for 2-channel playback or a DSP mode if you prefer to

hear music sources in surround sound.

NOTE: A digital signal coming into the processor will be recognized and

properly decoded. However, on a Blu-ray with multiple soundtracks, you

may need to configure the player for the desired signal and encoding type.

For example, you may need to use the player’s menu system to select the

desired Dolby Digital or DTS soundtrack.

Manually Selecting Surround Modes

For users who prefer a more active role in setting surround modes, buttons

on the remote and the front panel provide manual selection of surround

modes that are not automatically detected or, in some cases, to override

an automatic setting.

Manual settings available from the front panel and/or the remote control

should be used when you want to play:

• Standard 2-channel stereo (Left/Right speakers, and depending upon

speaker settings also subwoofer) with no surround processing.

• Down mixed 2-channel playback of Dolby Digital 5.1 or DTS recordings.

• Dolby 3-channel stereo (Left/Right/center) of 2-channel recordings.

• 5-channel stereo, 7-channel, 9-channel or 11-channel from 2-channel

recordings.

• Other modes may be available depending on the system conguration

and active source material.

• PCM 2-channel (non 96kHz) digital signals can be overridden to Dolby

3-Stereo, 5CH Stereo, 7CH Stereo, 9CH, and 11CH and Stereo, as

well as Dolby Atmos and DTS Neural:x.

To change the surround mode press the SUR+ button on the remote control

or front panel to toggle through the available options. The 2CH button on

the remote control will create a down mix of any multichannel signal to 2

channel stereo mode.

NOTE: Not all surround modes are available for all surround source

formats. The input source signal will determine the available surround

options that can be selected.

Digital Audio

You can play these recordings in Stereo, Dolby 3-Stereo, 5-CH Stereo, 7-CH,

9CH ,11CH Stereo, Dolby ATMOS Surround and Dolby Neural:X modes.

All of the bass management settings (speaker size, subwoofer, and crossover)

are in effect with digital stereo inputs unless BYPASS mode is selected.

To change the surround mode press the SUR+ button on the remote control

or front panel control to toggle through the available surround options. The

2CH button on the remote control will create a down mix of any multichannel

signal to 2 channel stereo mode.

NOTE: Not all surround modes are available for all surround source

formats. The input source signal will determine the available surround

options that can be selected.

Analog Stereo

This type of recording includes any conventional stereo signals from the

processor’s analog inputs, including analog audio from CD players, FM

tuners, etc.

Analog stereo inputs require a choice about how the signal is routed through

the processor. One option is the ANALOG BYPASS mode. In this mode, the

stereo signal is routed directly to the volume control and the outputs. This

mode is pure 2-channel stereo, bypassing all of the digital circuitry. None

of the bass management features, speaker level settings, EQ settings, or

delay settings is active. There is no subwoofer output. A full-range signal is

sent directly to the front left and right speakers.

Alternatively, a DSP mode can be enabled, this converts the analog

inputs to digital signals, passing them through the digital processors in the

RAP-1580MKII. This allows all of the features to be active including bass

management settings, crossovers, subwoofer outputs, EQ settings, etc. There

are several DSP modes available, including: Stereo, Dolby 3-Stereo, 5-CH

Stereo, 7-CH Stereo, 9CH and 11CH Stereo, Dolby ATMOS Surround and

Dolby Neural:X modes.

To change the DSP mode press the SUR+ button on the remote control or

front panel control to toggle through the available surround options.
